Beausejour Moves School Building to Legion Memorial Site
Beausejour town council votes to turn a vacated school into a Memorial Club rooms and historic site for the local Legion, with veterans to maintain it beside the new memorial arena. The move follows protests over Nelson River power plans and supports McArthur Falls near Winnipeg River for lower transmission costs. Community notes report on local visits, residents, birthday celebrations, letters from distant sailors, and opening remarks for the new Beausejour school with a diverse guest turnout.
